Dr. Kathleen Kuehn: I am an Assistant Professor in Social Media at Christopher Newport University in the department of Communication. I recently received my PhD from Penn State University (located in rural central PA) and am happy to be leaving near the beach (a lifelong dream)! I'm the oldest of five and have wanted to teach my whole life; just ask my younger siblings, who I used to torture by playing "school" and making them take tests for "fun." Beach teaching for amazing students = I'm good at ruling.
Callista Small: I am a Communication major and Business minor. I am graduating in December. I hope to pursue a career in marketing with a focus on social media strategy. I'm from Oakton in Northen VA. My favorite sports to watch are hockey and football. Go Caps and Skins woo!

Matt King: I am a Communication major and Business minor. I am a junior at CNU and can't wait to graduate. I am looking to pursue a masters degree in Exercise Science at Sydney University. I play on the CNU Mens Tennis Team and look forward to the season ahead, my favorite athletes are Patrick Rafter, Greg Plitt, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jay Cutler. If i was to describe Social Media in a simple phrase, it would be: extensive yet endlessly evolving.
Serena D'Angelo: I am a junior, Communication major with a Journalism minor. I work as the Arts and Entertainment Editor for the Captain's Log. I also work in the Comm department. I'm the Vice President of Lambda Pi Eta (which all of you should join if you are eligible). I am really bad at spelling, and my notes will consistently be full of typos. I love the Food Network, and one day I will be a rockstar, or at least be their friend.
Ashley Page: I am a Communications major and Journalism minor. I'm a junior and I hope to be some sort of book editor or an editor at a newspaper or magazine someday. If not, I'm going to culinary school or to be a flight attendant. I love ballet, dogs, and winter. I'm also a Caps fan (like Callista!) and my favorite sport to watch is soccer.
Joseph Suarez: I am a senior pursuing a Communication Studies degree with minors in Business and Political Studies.

I basically have no flaws and have great calves. Swag.
Krystal Cox: I am a very super senior, finally getting my Bachelor's in Communications. WHOO! I will graduate next December. Single Mother of a great 6 year old little man, I work full time, and attend school full time; yes there are days I do not sleep. During the Fall we watch a TON of sports, football and hockey mostly. My NFL team is the Green Bay Packers (no I am NOT a bandwagon fan, I have loved their organization since I was in High School) and College team is VA Tech and for hockey I am a Tampa Bay Lightning fan, why you may ask? Well the players from the Norfolk Admirals go there when called up and I follow them closely :-) I hope to get into Sports somehow once I get my degree. If not I'll find something :-)

Luke Saunders: I am a senior majoring in Communications. I live in lancaster va which is a very small town. I play baseball at cnu. There seems to be a sports trend so i will tell you that i am a huge yankees fan and have seen 11 yankees games at yankee stadium.
